This was averted in 2014, however, with ''Restaurant: Impossible'' being restricted largely to Wednesday nights.* [[TheCameo Celebrity Cameo]]: Professional wrestler Wrestling/GailKim appeared in one episode of the show, which is how she and Robert first met. They married in 2012.* HeyItsThatGuy: Two of the chefs in the first episode previously appeared on ''Series/{{Chopped}}''.** Michael Gilletto, the chef that won the job, was frequently criticized on ''Chopped'' for making dishes way too small.
